Prenatal Massage: Relieve Discomfort & Promote Relaxation
During pregnancy, your body works tirelessly to nurture your growing baby. This can bring joy but also discomfort—aches, swelling, fatigue, and tension. Prenatal massage helps ease these common challenges while providing a deeply calming experience.
Benefits of Prenatal Massage:
-
Relieves lower back pain, hip discomfort, and muscle tension
-
Improves circulation to reduce swelling and promote oxygen flow
-

-
Encourages deep relaxation for better sleep and stress relief
-
Enhances the connection between mother and baby
​
Malia’s approach is connected to your individual needs, adjusted for each trimester, and always prioritizes your safety and comfort. Side-lying positioning, lifted table for back support when sitting up, supportive cushions, and intuitive techniques ensure you feel fully relaxed and cared for.
